Milwaukee Day Showcase 2019

It all started about a decade ago when a group of friends realized Milwaukees 414 area code had a striking resemblance to the numerals in April 14 (or 4/14) and turned that coincidence into a full-blown local holiday. Since its unlikely outset, Milwaukee Day has resulted in an official mayoral proclamation, a founder getting to throw out a first pitch before a Brewers game, an abundance of civic-centered specials offered by area businesses, a wide-reaching hashtag, a cameo on 'Jeopardy!,' and a holiday-themed beer.

Milwaukee Day has also become an occasion to celebrate local music. Past April 14ths have featured especially stacked concerts. With the rampant growth of the holiday, Milwaukee Day's founders took the year off in 2017 to encourage others to celebrate anyway and anywhere they'd like. After getting approval to revive the concert last year, we're happy to announce Milwaukee Record will host another Milwaukee Day Showcase.

Join us at The Cooperage on Sunday, April 14 to celebrate Milwaukee Day with an eclectic lineup of local entertainers. We've done our part by assembling an all-star cast of some of the city's best and most entertaining acts, including Platinum Boys, Klassik, Joseph Huber, Lauryl Sulfate & Her Ladies Of Leisure, and host/poet Kavon Cortez-Jones.

The 21+ show (sponsored by Miller High Life, Milwaukee Pedal Tavern, Nail Bar Milwaukee, and Cactus Club) starts at 5:30 p.m. (doors at 4:30 p.m.). We hope to see you there!
